Horrible Greyish-Black Condition
I am having the same disgusting problem with the burnished flat beater. Have stopped using it due to my great concern of toxicity and or any other type of health hazard associated with this discoloration. I have been advised to have it analyzed to see what we had ingested.

What happened?
I had my first KitchenAid mixer for a couple decades and many military moves before it gave up the ghost in Europe. I was lured away by another brand and recently returned to KitchenAid, a Professional 6 quart. I was surprised at the change in the attachments. They are so lightweight compared to the previous ones I owned. Like others, the main issue is the oxidizing, even when hand washed. Now I have to scrub it each time before I use it. I sure the change has saved money but I would gladly pay more for a more hardy, non oxidizing attachment. I would still recommend a KitchenAid...I bought them for both of my daughters but I would warn them of the attachment issues.

Beater turned vanilla icing grey
I was so excited to use my new mixer, but wish I would have have known that the accessories that came with it were going begin to discolor my food. The first time I made icing, it turned grey and I was shocked. After this happened I did a little research online, it appears I am not the first one to question what happened. Why have these accessories not been changed? With the amount of money spent on this powerful machine, I wish the accessories were equal in quality. Im just super disappointed I am going to have to spend more money to remedy this... especially if I want to continue to use it like it should be used.

Love the mixer, hate the flat beater
I bought mixer about 8 months ago. Love the mixer, hate flat beater. It has a film that continues to come off. It is like a metal finish.

QUESTION to KITCHEN AID...
My question is directly to KitchenAid... Clearly the problem with the flat beater is a quality control /workmanship issue. What are you doing about it? A "refund" does NOT fix the problem. YOU NEED TO MANUFACTURE QUALITY BEATERS then provide mixer owners with a REPLACEMENT at no charge...(like a recall, if you will). Because as of now, our investment in a Kitchen Aid stand mixer is worthless. We can't use a mixer without a functioning beater! Do something.

Great mixer . Poor quality attachments
I received my mixer as a gift . I love the performance of the mixer . However after two washes the paddle oxidized and I have not been able to use my mixer. I have had to just go back to my handheld mixer.

Cannot use anymore
as others state, the finish oxidized and now cannot be used. I absolutely love this mixer and was so excited when I finally purchased it. Very disappointed with the oxidation of the flat and the whisk beaters.

Disappointed
I purchased my 5 qt stand mixer from Sam''s club. I'm very happy with it except for the attachments that came with it. Just as the others have stated my beater and dough hook are both leaving a grey residue in whatever I am cooking. Tried to research if there was something that could be done but did not find any info for that. You are better off buying a stand mixer without attachments and purchase the ones that are coated separately. Disappointing that the stand mixer is made with high quality however the attachments are not. I am happy with the performance of the mixer in general

Varnish coming off after single Wash
This attachment is not very useful after the first use. We are no longer able to use the mixer without getting black varnish coming off the attachement and into the food. There should be a solution to this problem especially when the mixer costs as much as it does.

Horrible
This is honestly the worst. Oxidized after one hand washing. I am so irritated.
